dark blade knight -> Solution to people leaving or D/C in battles? (12/21/2012 8:26:41)

I dont know if this has been said before so I apologize if it has.

As you all know ever since this game has started there has been a big problem of people disconnecting or leaving games. Due to this most of the time players lose due to this.
This can be incredibly frustrating and unfair.
Well I was just thinking how can this problem be solved?
I came up with the idea of a phantom player.

The essential idea of this is that the player that disconnects is copied so he is still there and the partner will be able to control both himself and the phantom player.
So lets say we have player w and player x facing player y and player z.
Play x disconnects or leaves the battle.
Before player x the last recorded change to him is copied. So lets say player x loses 20 hp points he is copied from that exact moment.
So that way player w is not left in an almost un-winnable situation.

I dont know if this would be possible but I thought I would post it and see what people thought.

Thank you for reading.

That has been suggested before,

And the reason its rejected is possible abuse of people to there partners maybe insulting them to make them DC and therefore gain control for themselves and get an easier win.


This is just an example.

I would ask T or R how much stress this would be on the servers to make a "new character load" in battle.

RabbleFroth stated once that giving control of a player after he leaves battle to his partner would cause security issues.

ehh, idk about this.

i think it would be better if ur partner left at the begining of the battle (i.e before it starts or before his round should have started) then he should be replaced with an NPC. the other day i was doing some 2 vs 2 and 4 matches in a row, my partner left before it started.

i think 3 were disconnection, and another was on purpose.

and these weren't 1 sided battles, we could have managed a win had they stayed.

I could see that but maybe instead of the player given a name he is given phantom player so people gaining control cant claim the character is theirs.

how about giving double turn to the player? would not work in jugg because 35 is obviously stronger but in 2 vs 2 it should work indeed

obviously unless his partner has died
